Golden Nuggets: We’re on to Seattle

Your daily San Francisco 49ers news for Tuesday, January 13th, 2026

Inside the giddy 49ers locker room, a Grateful tribute from a team that won’t die (paywall)
“Typically, enough Niners fans infiltrate those buildings to create a resounding roar when things go well for the visitors.

That wasn’t the case Sunday night as the depleted 49ers completed an almost unfathomable first-round playoff upset of the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles by a 23-19 score, leaving most of the 69,879 fans stunned and mute. The absence of noise left Juszczyk with an eerie sense of displacement.

“When we won the game, it was just silence,” Juszczyk told me later. “It was a weird feeling, because every time something good happened, there was no cheering. I thought, ‘S—, did we do this? Did we pull this off?’ It wasn’t really until we were celebrating here in the locker room that it really started to set in. We went into this building, and we took care of business.

“It’s insane, the way that this team keeps finding a way to win.”

49ers vs. Seahawks playoff game date and kickoff time officially announced
“That uncertainty ended Monday night, when the NFL confirmed the 49ers-Seahawks game will kick off at 5:00 p.m. PT (8:00 p.m. ET) at Lumen Field. It will be broadcast on FOX.“
